It's been been around in catalog awhile so I wanted to think outside the box beyond cards!
Christmas countdown: Using a chipboard clipboard, I combined Season of Joy stamp set for embellishments with Deck the halls dsp from holiday mini. I cut the numbers using die for big shot. I embossed the trees in gold and used crystal effects on poinsetta flower.
And finally I needed to do a Christmas card, I decided to not use traditional holiday colors red & green.
I used baja breeze and early expresso for color combo and got to love the new glass glitter! Of course I had to emboss because it is my favorite!
Thanks for stopping by on my tour. Before you go leave a comment with your name and email and you will have a chance to win blog candy!
I am giving away clear mount Stamp set grunge rock!
Only open to US residents (sorry)

Thanks for sharing your great projects. The wine charms are adorable and a great accompaniment to a bottle of wine with the cute "hang tag." Your nontraditional Christmas card is delightful. Count me in on your drawing for the Grunge Rock stamp set.
